Christmas in MINI olis.l

\ 'f
TIC eleven Catholic churches IN Min
|neapolis were decorated most hand
somely for the Christmas services
Mass was celebrated the same as OF
other Sundays, only the mass beginning
at 1890 was Of more than usual inter
est, eloquent sermons being preached
at each church. The church of the I'm
maculate Conception was decorated
most handsomely, as usual The two
pillars between which the pulpit stands,
were wound with ropes Of evergreen
and smilax, The same as the pillars be
hind the chancel rail. Drapery of ever.
green, smilax and ivy hung from the
pillars, presenting fine appearance.
Wreathes of green adorned the novels
of the pillars, and were hung around on
the altars in graceful profusion. The
three altars-the altar Of the Blessed
Virgin at the left, Of St. Joseph at the
right and the high altar in the center
were adorned with natural and cut
flowers to such an extent that che can
dies we're almost invisible. Rey.
Father Kane OF the Catholic seminary,
preached an interesting sermon. Danz's
orchestra furnished the music. TIE
singing was excellent.
The Church Of st Anthony Of Padua
was beautifully decorated with ever
green's, and the main and side altars
with natural flowers and foliage plants
ia great profusion. The back OF the
main altar was draped in white satin,
gracefully looped over the doors, with
8 large spray Of flowers holding it in
place. The altar was draped in cream
lace and covered with myriais OF can
dies, which peeped out from every con-
ceivable space and gave the appearance
Of a yerltable little paradise. The BAN
ners OF the various societies were hung
in different parts Of the church, the
members Of which attended in body,
and presented very fine appearance,
The Church Of Our Lady Of Lourdes
was not behind in her decorations TO
commemorate the great festival Of the
dag. Natural flowers Of every descrip-
tion adorned the several affairs, and at
the left of the main altar smaller one
was constructed, at the foot Of which
was little crib containing a small fg-
ure representing the infant Christ in th6
manger.
At the Holy Rosary Church the dec
orations were numerous and pretty, and
considerable artistic skill was displayed
in arranging the natural and cut flo owers
which adorned the altar. The decora
tions at the churches OF St. Stephens:
st. Joseph, ST. Boniface, St. Clotilde,
st. Lawrence aud the others consisted
mainly OF evergreen and natural flowers.
The decorating was all done by the
young ladies connected with the various
churches, and was done in a careful and
tasty manner.

Empty Oars Scarce.

Tpe mills keep the -four output close
TO 10000 barrels per day, says the
Northwestern Miller. This was about
the average last week. The product TOT
she week ending December "a, was l2O,-
800 barrels averaging m,l50 barrels
daily against $4,000 barrels last week
and So ,0oO barrels for the correspond
ing tine in 1886. There is net much
change in the situation on the platform
this week. Fourteen mills are running,
and they are producing about O,00O
daily. Que steam mill has withdrawn
for repairs, leaving seven using engines.
They, of course, are getting out the
Lulk Of the flour. The water, for . few
days past mas been higher AZ . result OF
light draft upon it; but with low
temperature prevailing and considera-
bic ice running, the benefit from this
have not been asgreat as they would be
under other circumstances. Two mills
undergoing improvements for some
weeks past, are about ready to begin
work again. and as they uss water pow,
er altogether, their starting may draw
the head dowa again. There is general
complaint about empty cars being scarce
his week, some of the mills getting
hardly enough to keep their packing
1oors from becoming blocked. a very
light movement in flour for the East is
reported, the mills in operation paying:
